April CupboardScape

 With April fading away fast,

I need to hurry up and post my

April CupboardScape.

April showers

Bring May flowers.

I decided to keep up my Spring quilt.

So love the muted colors in this one.

Purchased these child's rubber boots a few years ago.

Perfect for this time of the year display.

The umbrella is from the 1800's.

I dont dare open it it up as it is so fragile

it may break.

Hope you liked this simple display.

sometimes keeping it more simple makes

for a better statement.

In other news.

Thank you all for the well wishes on getting 

my wisdom teeth pulled.

I dont feel any less wiser. LOL

Friday evening was the worst, but by Saturday

I was almost up to par.

I do believe the surgeon messed up the crown

next to one he took out.

He did say it might happen.

Well I think it did and has 

 been aching ever since. UGH

Now I have to call my regular dentist back.   

No spicy foods for a week.

No straws or soda (pop) for 2 weeks.

I talked with mom on Sunday just to check in.

She had been to our house for a couple of days 

last week but did not want to call me cause

of my surgery... so I called her.

She told me her one neighbor was out on

the back porch one early evening and saw

a walking by far enough away from her

that it did not see her.

She knew it was a mama skunk because strolling

behind her were three little stinking baby skunks. 

Now I would have liked to have seen that.

Well have to get ready for work.

Last week was my 28th work anniversary.

I work for a major bank but cannot say which one.

Prior to that I worked for a different bank for 

almost 20 years before we were sold out to 

Old Kent Bank which is now Fifth Third Bank. 

We all lost our jobs with that bank merger.

At least the bank I had worked for which was

First National Bank had put me through college.

All I had to pay for was my books.

Once I retire I can say who this current bank is...

whenever that will be.

With all of the monies we had to shell out thus far

in April (my teeth, quarterly sales tax for the business, 

Shadow's vet bills and prescription food,

and paying uncle Sam on April 15th)

 it may be a few more years until I retire.

Let's just say it all could have paid for a new

foundation we were thinking of putting in

as an addition to our house.

Hope you all are have a wonderful start to your week!

April Blessings To All!
